"We need to help people living in poverty without intruding on their private sphere." (15.06.2012)
June 15, 2012
A Region in Crisis Garbatulla was once a luscious land of green pastures bursting with grazing cattle. Now, as the worst drought in 60 years grips the Horn of Africa, the stunning scenery of the Kenyan region, one of the worst affected areas, has been replaced with dry, arid land. Kenya is experiencing its worst drought in more than 60 years, with 3.5 million people in urgent need of assistance. Garbatulla is one of the most affected areas of the drought. The once luscious land is now barren and strewn with the carcasses of dead cattle, which are the only means of food and income for thousands of families. Many communities have lost up to 90% of their herd and the next harvest is not expected until February or March 2012. One in five children in the region is at risk of malnutrition.
